Hi! I was wondering who you guys used for your psych eval if you needed one. Thanks! By the way, I am in League City.

I used Kevin Smith downtown. Its kind of BS. They basically make you fill out a questionare of like 200 questions that ask the same question in 200 different ways. The questions consist of like have you ever thought about suicide, would you ever kill yourself etc... Hell if we thought that we wouldn't want the band. We wanna live!

Hi everyone, I live in Pearland and was banded by Dr Spiegel 9 mos ago in December of 09, s far I've lost 45lbs. Finally got the right amount of fill after going over and over and over to get fills. Would love to be part of a local group!:smile:

congrats on the weight loss. I think they have some sort of band meeting every month, one in clear lake and one in pasadena. Don't get me lying to you when they are due to never making one. I think it conflicts with my corvette meets or work

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
